The document discusses a pilot project within the Big Data Europe initiative that aims to integrate citizen budget data from multiple municipalities. The pilot will develop a platform to aggregate budget and spending data from different sources and formats to allow for analysis and visualization. Technical components like Apache Flume, Kafka, Spark and HDFS will be used to ingest, store and analyze the data. A semantic layer will consolidate the data and link it. The pilot aims to evaluate the platform with municipalities and receive feedback on analyzing a growing amount of integrated budget data over time.
